Finally a move I like, assuming no retention is announced.

 

[Adtar02]

Seriously. This is bad. At least voracek goes back to the team that traded him to us.

 

[BrindamoursNose]

Nothing this offseason has gone as I expected.

Welp y'all wanted the Flyers to push the pedal on competing with some big moves and boyyyyyyyyy did y'all get your wish.

Now we can still be good, but holy hell has the value been bled out of our players in these transactions.

Jakes contract + performance combo tanked his value. Getting a similar level of player back with $3 million AAV savings is a win for me. It was time to move on from Jake. Both sides agreed.

This is not bad... he's an all around good player.... Jake's the better player but I was expecting worse.lol

 

[RANKKA]

um what

 

[LegionOfGloom]

I'm ok with this trade with the confirmation that we added no picks and retained no salary. We need the cap savings now and Atkinson is more versatile. We can also buy out that extra year that he has on his deal. Or retain some and move him.

 

[Tripod]

And there is the cap space needed to sign everyone

Hayes has a new winger!

 

[Fight4yourRight]

This isn’t bad.. why the tears? I thought we’d have to add a pick. We save some space and get a shot first kind of guy. Him and Giroux may find some chemistry. He can also PK. Best of luck, Jake.

 

[FlyTimmo]

Deck chairs have been shuffled.

Its gone this way because Seattle screwed us over by choosing to be awful.

Did we ever get confirmation that Jake requested a trade? Or was that Elkund garbage?

 

[pooch]

Interesting trade. I don’t hate it or love it.

 

[flyers0909]

Going to miss Jake.
